Wedding Testimonials

All my close friends told me how difficult it would be to work with a caterer in planning Jennifer’s wedding.  Nicholas, with you, it was just the opposite!  Your experience and practical advice made it so easy.  Everything was just as you promised.  Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you so much for being such a key part of making Mary and Kevin’s wedding reception the greatest ever.  The food was outstanding and so beautifully presented.  Please tell your wonderful staff how much they were appreciated. I will be one of your most enthusiastic fans.

Corporate Testimonials

Everyone had so much fun at the picnic.  We have gotten many kind words from our employees about this years outing.  I think we finally found the winning formula and it definitely involves you.  Cathy is getting married next May and I will definitely give you a call.  Now that I know it never rains on a Fitzgerald’s party.  Thanks!

Just a short note to say how great our company clambake was.  The chowder was delicious, just like on the Cape!  See you next year.  As always, I’m will be happy to recommend you anytime.  Gratefully.

Private Party Testimonials

I don’t know how to thank you enough for making our house party such a fun and relaxing time.  We really were able to focus on our friends and not worry about whether things would get done.  Everyone said how great the food was, especially the chicken.  It was so moist and tender.  Best wishes.  You will be the one I’ll call for all my future parties.

                                    R.W. Weston

Nick, we got so many compliments from our friends that I had to let you know.  Your references were right on target when they told me what a carefree time I would have.  You even took the garbage at the end of the night.  Thank you so much and God bless!

Birthday Party Testimonials

We did it! George’s birthday party was a complete surprise.  He got a little suspicious at seeing all the cars down the block, but I told him it was probably a Tupperware party.  Thanks for all your help.  The food was great and your advice in planning was invaluable.

                                    W.W. Trumbull 

Nick, thanks again for making Barb’s birthday party a success in spite of the weather.  You kept your cool when I needed you.  Thanks!  The food was the best catering food I have ever tasted and your staff was wonderful. I am so glad I called you.  I don’t think I would have been able to do it without you.  See you this summer at the beach club.

Bar/Batmitzvah Testimonials

To the staff at Fitzgerald’s.  Thank you for making David’s Bar Mitzvah a success.  It really worked out well to have a separate menu for David and his friends.  Of course I think everybody enjoyed the ice cream Sundae bar!  I must admit, when I saw your name on the list of caterers at Temple Israel, I didn’t know what to think.  All doubts flew out the window when my mother in-law asked who made the whitefish.  Everything was first rate, especially the brisket.  Thanks again.

                                    L.D. Westport 

To Nicholas,  Please accept my thanks for making our Linda’s big day the success it was.  Your experience in not only planning the menu but in what entertainment to provide was invaluable.  I don’t know where you get your staff, but they are the most patient conscientious group I’ve ever seen.  Everyone is so calm.  They are a credit to your company.  Thanks for all your help and I’ll see you at the women’s club.

Holiday Testimonials

Your professionalism in planning our holiday open house in our new offices was beyond expectation.  You really did “make me a guest at my own party”.  The hors d’oeuvres were terrific and your staff was so attentive.  Congratulations! We’re sold.  See you again next year!

                                    A.J.C. Stamford

You have been catering our company Christmas party for almost 20 years now, and I am still amazed with the way you work.  Your people have really become part of our extended family.  Please thank them for another great job.  I’ll be calling you for my son’s graduation party in June. Make sure we have those crab puffs.

                                    J.S. Stratford

BBQ/Picnic Testimonials

Nicholas, just a quick note to thank you again for another great barbeque.  I appreciate your help in hitting the budget I was given this year.  Next year we’ll have lobster!  I hope.  All the best.

                                    D.S. Trumbull 

Nick thanks again for making our picnic a success in spite of the weather.  You kept a cool head when I needed you most.  Thanks!  The food was the best, as always, and your staff was wonderful. I am so glad we found you five years ago and have continued the relationship.  Have a prosperous fall and 2012

Brunch Testimonials

Nick, the food and service were impeccable as usual.  Our omelet chef was especially charming.  You were right that make your own was the way to go.  Janet wanted me to thank you for her as well.  She couldn’t believe how clean her kitchen was when you left.  You even took the garbage!  We’ve had a few calls from our guests asking who the caterer was.  I’ll gladly pass your name along anytime.  You made a normally stressful time into a pleasure.  Thanks!

                                    P.D. Easton 

Hello from the Murphy clan!  We wanted to thank you for the great brunch you catered for us last month.  It was such a relief to just let you in the door and sit back and be one of the guests.  The food was excellent.  Jeanie especially loved the salmon filet.  She can’t stop talking about it.  She wants to have you back in the fall for our anniversary.  Please thank your people for us.  Excellent!

Showers Testimonials

Nick, I thought pulling off the surprise baby shower for Michelle would be next to impossible since I live in New York and they live in Stratford.  With your help we did it!  I really think she didn’t suspect a thing.  Your help really made it all possible.  How do you stay so calm?  Thanks again.

                                    R.C. New York City 

Julie and I want to thank you for making our sister’s bridal shower a huge success.  The menu was just right.  Especially the crepes! Yum!  Hope to see you at the wedding.

Memorial Service Testimonials

I just wanted to drop you a line and thank you for the wonderful job you did.  Worrying about feeding our friends and family during this time was the last thing we needed.  As usual, your staff knew exactly what to do and when to do it.  Nicholas, we’ve been together during both good times and bad and you have always been there with kindness.  Our deepest gratitude to you and your staff.

                                    K.G. Greenwich 

You were so helpful in planning Jean Marc’s memorial service.  The food was delicious and your staff very efficient.  Father Jim was right when he said you were the one to call.  It was a great day to celebrate memories of my husband with our family and neighbors.  Thank you for being such a big part of that success.  I will gladly recommend you to all my friends.

Fund Raiser Testimonials

Nick, you really pulled it off.  Not only was everything exactly as you promised, your experience and know-how leading up to the day really put me at ease.  I don’t know what we would have done without you.  I’m sure you will get a lot of new customers from this event.  I am still getting calls about that beef!  Please send along thanks to your wonderful staff.  You are a wonder worker!  Thanks again.

                                          L.M. Southport 

Nicholas, it was a success!  The silent auction brought in over ten thousand dollars towards the support of our community arts program.  All the little desserts were scrumptious and everything looked so grand with the china and silver service.  Best wishes.

                                          E.S. Westport

Clam Bakes

Thank you for making our clambake exactly how we imaged it.  My mother said it was the best lobster she’d ever eaten.  That’s good enough for me.  Please feel free to use me as a reference.  We are big fans of Fitzgerald’s!

                                    N.S. Darien 

Dear Nicholas,

You should consider just catering clambakes.  From the mussels, to the corn, to the succulent lobster and steaks, everything was perfect!  I’m hoping I can get our younger daughter to agree to a clambake wedding when she gets engaged.  You captured the New England flavor we wanted our out of town guests to experience.  We’ll see you in the fall at the hunt club.
